Summer Trend: High Waisted Shorts + Crop Top

cne comp 1

Alert, alert! High waisted shorts are making a comeback!

These particular shorts are from Topshop, and I got them three years ago while I was in London. If I wanted to go all hipster I’d say I was wearing these before they were cool - which I was - but I won’t. ;P I genuinely love high-waisted shorts and what they do to a girl’s figure, and I wouldn’t trade this gorgeous waistband for a low rise one, ever.

These guys running the games seemed to love my shorts too! :P

People looked at me like I was crazy for wearing these heels, but carnivals are just so much fun to photoshoot at! One photographer actually started following us around like a stalker. It’s a different story if he’d said hi or asked to take a pic, but he was hiding around the games and would start walking away when I looked at him, then point his camera at me when I turned away! Creeeeepy.

What I love about this outfit is that it’s so effortless. Just two pieces: a crop top and shorts, yet it looks so fun and flattering. It’s so comfortable and moveable, perfect for this hot summer weather.

So techies, what’s your opinion on the comeback of high-waisted shorts? Do you love ‘em like me or hate ‘em?

Spring == true!

I wish it were that easy…if only we could hard code nature to make spring come earlier. But it’s finally here! The flowers are blooming, the birds are singing, and I’m out doing photoshoots again. This shoot features a Topshop dress (modded by moi with the ribbon on the back) that I got while I was in England, and Stuart Weitzman heels!
